the owl
It helps owls survive because they need it to catch prey, fly, (see) ect.
owls see in the dark because their eyes are large and circular,and since the eyes are so large, any light they is is sucked in,and lots of light is sucked in because of the large eyes. also, they do the hunting part by swooping silently on their wings,and when they hear the prey,they swoop to attack it,also the most common owl in Europe is the teat owl (teat owl-teatowl-geddit?)
An owl's eyes are typically yellow or orange in color.
You look at the owl and the owl looks at you.
they have 2 eyes
Owl vision is way better because they have large eyes that dont have the ability to move in their sockets. Larger eyes mean better vision, plus, they are nocturnal, meaning they can see better in the dark and sun. -owl expert grl (12 yrs)
They are very large. In fact, they take up so much of the owl's skull that there is no room for the muscles (such as human beings have) to move the eyes around. This is why an owl is able to swivel its head around to such a great extent (almost 180 degrees) On average, owls can rotate their heads 270 degrees. If humans had eyes in proportion to an owls, our eyes would be the size of saucers. NF
the barred owls lungs are three to four feet long
It is an owl. There are several species of owls, some large or small, and not all species hunt at night. If all the feathers were removed from a tawny owl, for instance, it would reveal how small the owl's body really is without the bulk of the plumage.
The owl was linked to the Greek goddess Athena (in Roman Minerva) the goddess of wisdom. Maybe their wisdom was linked to their large, empathetic eyes, and maybe with the 360o vision.
